Injured suspect arrested in Northeast El Paso stabbing

A man was arrested but not jailed in connection with a stabbing last month at a Northeast El Paso apartment, police officials said this week.

Ruben Bejaran, 32, is accused of stabbing Ebenezer Delgado, 21, with a knife during a fight at a party Feb. 2 in the 4900 block of Hercules Avenue, according to a police report. Delgado's wounds were not considered life-threatening.

A police spokesman said Bejaran was arrested Feb. 5 on a charge of aggravated assault with a deadly weapon but that he had hand injuries and was not allowed to be booked into the El Paso County Jail. He will be booked later, officials said.
